[tri-med] Re: tumbleform chair

My Jason has T 17 and is 7months. he is still in bouncers but he is  
constantly wanting to get into the sitting up position, and i feel they are too 
 
reclined for him. he is always throwing himself up, ( like he is doing an  
abdominal crunch) and he can't stay seated up like that on his own, so on  the 
way 
down from the crunch, he went sideways and his upper body was hanging  out the 
side of the bouncer. i did find one bouncer that is more upright,  but he tends 
to fall to the side in it, and just looks lopsided.
 
i asked my PT about getting him some type of special chair for him, and she  
said she would let me know when he needs it. it seems to me like he needs  it 
now. i was wondering at what age your child got their first "special"  seat, 
was it for just relaxing, was it because of feeding??.......which chair  did 
they have??.......who recommended it to you??........did the medicaire  
waiver/care at home pay for it??...... 
 
Thanks,
